And in "the document" there is "content" which is high on my list of
annoying words.
A couple of years ago, I was thought of as a "content provider" rather
than a writer. This I feel diminishes and minimizes the effort and
thought behind the effort in producing meaningful and usable information
and instructions.

When coworkers refer to a manual as "the document" no matter what the
